You will still need to have server virus protection.  Groupshield only
protects the SMTP traffic and the mailboxes.  McAfee has a product
called Netshield for server protection.  It works great also.  You can
have them both send notifications to an alert server that then sends you
emails, pages, computer pop-up messages etc to alert you of problems.

I'd like to know if this virus scanner also protects the whole server
itself. Or is it just made especially for exchange? What if we're using
a different mail server (like SBC)?  Please discuss the limitations and
more advantages of the product aside from what was mentioned in the
email of Mr. Overfield re: this matter.

Have A Nice Day!

        We use GrpShld as well, an excellent product, seamless updates,
highly
        configurable, excellent logging and notification.....I would
recommend
        enabling heuristic scanning, as it catches nearly all virii even
before
        updated or emergency DAT files are released by NAI, and has
saved me more
        than a few times (nimda being one example....GrpShld heuristic
scanning
        identified it as "New Back Door" and stopped about 50 infected
emails from
        being delivered to user mailboxes, I was out of state at a
conference at the
        time, and didn't get around to checking my email until 7 in the
        evening).....IMHO, NAI products are vastly superior to Symantec
or any other
        products..
